How do I know "they" are just going to listen? I don't, and you don't, and therein lies the problem- and one that can't be fixed.

"As soon as you discover the mistake, you stop listening and throw away he file. No harm no foul. Remember, you had a warrant."

Where did the warrant come from? There was no warrant- that's what we were talking about.

There was a TV show on the other night, a police procedural, Close to Home, I think. The plot was about a little girl who was kidnapped for ransom, assuming I'm not getting my TV shows and plots mixed up. In any event, they caught the kidnapper but without the missing child. They needed to find the child. So the prosecutor and the mom put their heads together and consciously decided to use a tactic to find the location of the child that would obviate prosecution of the kidnapper. Maybe it was questioning him without his lawyer or some such. I watch so many of thee things that I may have my stories tangled.

I think that it was a young woman not a child. And the prosecutor and a cop didn't let the defendant see a lawyer when he asked for one.

Maybe it was another show with the child, or maybe the prosecutor in close to home makes a habit of denying lawyers to people arrested on kidnapping charges... I've only seen two episodes.
